You can use macros in the production side, but it becomes very application-specific. Those programs are useful for one-off runs and other situations where you're only cutting one type of feature.

but I don't use them very often in a production setting. Check it out for an idea of the implementation.ДЄnyway, on the macro side, over the years I've written a few quick parameter-based programs for things like peripheral squaring, facing, etc. There's an aftermarket device called SpiderCool () which sounds similar to the item you're describing. I don't have a need for it to be graphically represented in my CAM. Then at the beginning of the program G65 P9xxx. The system variables are in the Haas owner's manual.

I figured I'd do something like read the TLO and if its between 2'-3' set nozzle at position 14. The devil is always in the details, but it would be a fun project if I ever run out of more important things to do.I think you just exploded my head. Vector modification from tool depth to interface plane is simple since it is just a Z offset. On the CAM side you would need to model the P-COOL device as part of the tool holder and then calculate the vector from tool tip to nozzle.

Basically a simple MCU device (e.g., Arduino) with a serial port that receives a DPRNT from CAM to give rate/limits/etc. This would require custom macros in order to sync two, but we are modifying the post anyway. Something that has been on the project list is to drive the P-COOL directly and modify my SolidCAM post to have the nozzle directed at the tool/stock interface.
